"Alleged Trump Shooter Disassociated from CIA's MKUltra by Agency's Public Statement"

CIA Disavows Links to Thomas Matthew Crooks, Alleged Trump Shooter

In a surprising public statement, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has distanced itself from claims associating the supposed shooter of Donald Trump, Thomas Matthew Crooks, with their historical operation known as MKUltra.

The CIA has publicly debunked rumors linking Thomas Matthew Crooks, who allegedly targeted Donald Trump, with the MKUltra mind control program.

Thomas Crooks' Sparse Social Media Footprint

Tracking Crooks' social media activities, a low-key presence emerges predominantly on the Gab platform. His restricted activity also extends to an undisclosed gaming website where he has left traces of his virtual footprints. However, any additional particulars detailing Crooks' movements or his whereabouts during the supposed shooting remain elusive.

The implicit connection was made between Crooks and MKUltra, a real, yet controversial, CIA endeavor. This project, running from 1953 to 1973, aimed to manipulate human behavior through psychological mechanisms. Despite its end over 40 years ago, its shadowy reputation encircles it still.

Initial Report by Wired

It was Wired that initially broke the story of the CIA's decision to challenge the Crooks' conjectures publicly. By doing so, the agency has shown an uncommon willingness to confront inquiries about its history of covert programs. The public rejection of any connections with Crooks suggests a new approach to managing such scenarios.

The agency, speaking to Gizmodo, stated, "These claims are utterly false, absurd, and damaging. The CIA had no relationship whatsoever with Thomas Crooks. Regarding MKULTRA, the CIA's program was shut down more than 40 years ago, and declassified information about the program is publicly available on CIA.gov."

Public Response to CIA's Denial

Despite the firmness of the CIA's statement, social media users continue to dissect and discuss its meaning. Some have chosen to interpret the agency's denial differently, implying that the refusal of involvement might suggest the opposite.

One anonymous user on Twitter suggested a theory, questioning, “What if US President Joe Biden’s ‘mean tweets’ triggered Thomas Matthew Crooks?” Another Twitter user wrote about the shooter, “Yes like an #MKUltra test subject. I don't want to go into conspiracy theories here but the CIA did mind-control experiments like the #ManchurianCandidate. Wait for the trigger before acting."

End on a Note of Speculation

With the CIA's official denial now public, there's an unexpected willingness to address rumors about covert operations from their past. It adds a fresh twist to the overall narrative unraveling around Thomas Matthew Crooks and his purported plot against Donald Trump.

The void left by unanswered questions surrounding Crooks' activities adds a layer of enticing mystery to discussions revolving around this story. Yet the CIA's complete denial of any link to or knowledge of such schemes as MKUltra clearly elucidates their stance, leaving the public to form their own interpretations.
